情本易学:《周易》的“情感儒学”诠释

Emotion-oriented Scholarship on the Changes:An Interpretation on the Zhou Changes from Emotion-oriented Confucianism

“情感儒学”思想在易学上的体现可称为“情本易学”,即将“情感”观念一以贯之地落实在对《周易》的诠释之中。由此,情感儒学展开了情本易学的心灵主体论、境界超越论和自然生态论。情本易学的心灵主体论建基于“人是情感的存在”命题,旨在揭示作为心灵主体的人的情感主体性在《周易》中的体现。情本易学的境界超越论揭示《周易》所蕴含的境界超越观念,即人的存在的心灵境界特征,以及这种境界是如何通过情感主体的自我超越而实现的。情本易学的自然生态论揭示《周易》自然观念的“大生命”本质,穷究“天人之际”的生态关系,最终达到“天人合一”的情感境界。

The embodiment of “Emotion-oriented Confucianism” in Changes scholarship can be called “emotion-oriented scholarship on the Changes”;that is, the concept of “emotion” is consistently implemented in the interpretation of the Yijing. Thereby the emotion-oriented Confucianism unfolded emotion-oriented Changes scholarship which consists of the theory of subjective heart-mind, the theory of realm transcendence and the theory of natural ecology. Based on the proposition that “humans are an emotional beings”, the theory of subjective heart-mind in the Yijing aims to expose the embodiment of human emotional subjectivity as the spiritual subject in the Zhou Changes. The realm transcendence theory of “emotion-oriented Changes scholarship” reveals the concept of realm transcendence conceived in the Book of Changes, that is, characteristics of human existence illustrating the spiritual realm, and how this realm is realized through the self-transcendence of emotional subject. The natural ecology theory of “emotion-oriented Changes scholarship” sheds light on the essence of the “great life” in the concept of nature in the Book of Changes, investigates the ecological relationship between Heaven and human beings, and finally reaches the emotion-oriented realm of “the unity of heaven and humanity”.
